This place is a must go for President's Day weekend. We went this year and they had Abraham Lincoln and Mary and FDR---they did speeches and answered kdis questions, it was so much fun. They had bands in the great hall and music from that era. We will go every year for sure. They are also free the first Monday's of the month or maybe every Monday, so check it out on a school holiday!
